Reception

Receptionists provide a vital link for patients with the practice and are your initial contact point for general enquiries. They can provide information on services and results and direct you to the right person depending on your health issue or query. As well as this, they also perform lots of other important tasks such as overseeing medication requests, arranging medicals, booking appointments, contacting patients about results and followup, and liaising with pharmacies, nursing homes and other healthcare providers.
